July 31 (Bloomberg) -- Horst Seehofer, head of Chancellor
Angela Merkel's coalition partner CSU, doesn't want to set a
deadline for the closure of Germany's nuclear plants, Berliner
Zeitung said, citing an interview.
Nuclear power stations should be allowed to run for as long
as they remain safe, Seehofer said, according to the newspaper.
